I volunteer as part of the cleanup crew!

I feel some type of way about wasted food -- and I'm just talking about the burger you didn't finish. Now channel that feeling and multiply it tenfold, because a tractor-trailer carrying 43,000 pounds of mac & cheese just overturned on the highway, spilling the precious cargo in the process.

The accident, which took place near the intersection of junctions 24 and 40 in Nashville, happened around 7:30am Thursday morning, a local news outlet reported. Thankfully no injuries were reported, but we did lose oodles of noodles as a result.

A spokesperson for the Tennessee Department of Transportation provided several photos from the crash, featuring the subsequent dry pasta and cheese powder debris across the roadway.
